Joey knew the sewer's layout like the back of his hand. On the way to the police station, he used the Game Boy-like device in his hand to scout ahead, ensuring there were no ambushes.

Meanwhile, Maya was using another portable monitoring device to receive video signals from the surface. To her surprise, not only Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn, but also Two-Face and the Joker had escaped the_Bruce's surveillance...

At that moment, all the large screens in the city were playing a speech that Gordon had recorded long ago to appease the public. And the four "villains" who had not yet been executed had disappeared from people's sight, their whereabouts unknown...

For those who believed in the Bat, it was a truly "terrifying" night.

"Looks like we're here?" After turning a corner in the waterway, Xiao Ling suddenly slowed down and asked, turning her head.

"Yes, that's the manhole cover, above which is the police station's parking lot." Joey pointed to an iron ladder on the wall ahead, and then he showed a look of amazement, "Oh, Madam, your memory is so good, you only looked at the map once, and you didn't take the wrong path..."

"It's nothing." Xiao Ling replied casually, and then said, "Where are Dahl and the others?"

"The last time we received their signal was five minutes ago." Maya replied, "They should be hiding in the parking lot, preparing to meet us."

"Okay... then..." Just as Xiao Ling was about to say something, suddenly...

Bang!

A loud noise rang from above.

"What's going on?" Maya's expression tightened.

"That explosion doesn't sound good..." Joey was relatively calm, but his expression also became very solemn.

Whoosh—Just then, another sound of metal scraping came.

Then, the manhole cover above was opened. A short, stocky figure quickly climbed down from there.

"Dahl?" Joey recognized his companion from his back and hairstyle alone.

"Huh? Oh! Joey!" Dahl turned his head in a panic and glanced, then slid down the ladder. "Joey! This isn't good!" He ran over, panting and disheveled. "We were discovered by the Robin Squad! These bastards came prepared... with RPGs, and... hey! Wait, you rescued another person?" He said as he noticed Harley Quinn among the group.

"Are there any survivors on our side?" Ruo Yu suddenly opened her mouth, throwing out a question.

Dahl shook his head, "No, only me..."

Hearing this, Ruo Yu didn't say a word, but started walking forward slowly.

Her imposing manner made Dahl involuntarily step aside to make way.

"Thirty seconds." When Ruo Yu reached the stairs, she said these three words calmly. Then she lightly tapped her toes, leaped up, and rushed out of the round opening directly above.

"What does she mean?" Joey asked in confusion.

"Uh... before that..." Maya widened her eyes and said, "How did she jump so high?"

Xiao Ling smiled, "You can ask her yourself when you get up there later."

At the same time, on the ground...

"Don't move!" "Hands up!"

As soon as Ruo Yu appeared, shouts rang out from all around.

She, however, was not flustered, and paused in mid-air, turning her body and activating her Soul Skill—[Maximum Efficiency].

In that instant, even the flow of time seemed to slow down drastically in Li Ruo Yu's eyes.

Because in this state, her character's various stats would be calibrated to their theoretical maximum values. Therefore... most creatures in the same dimension seemed to her to be as slow as still objects.

"Fourteen... no, fifteen people." Li Ruo Yu's gaze swept across like a gust of wind, and her thinking became faster under the effect of her Soul Skill. "One RPG, four submachine guns, four shotguns, six rifles with unknown performance; everyone is wearing uniforms with the [R] badge printed on them, wearing combat helmets; like those soldiers driving hovercrafts before, they are undoubtedly the_Bruce's men..."

It only took Ruo Yu one second to confirm this information. This second passed in the blink of an eye for others, but for her... it was a rather ample amount of time.

In this second, she identified the enemy's identity and grasped their numbers, weapons, and distribution. She even took the time to look at the bodies of those Resistance soldiers on the ground, and after confirming that there were no other survivors nearby, she confidently made her move...

[Scattering Cherry Blossom Slash] (Luoying Sanhua Shan)

Cold eyes, gorgeous moves.

The [Consecration] (Feng Sheng) sword light, bloomed in the night sky. The sword energy turned into countless cherry-red fragments, scattering and falling.

Light, bloomed with chilling desolation. Blood, just like dense rain.

The skill, which originally had a kill range of ten meters in radius, was cast in the air under the impetus of Ruo Yu's Soul Skill—the realm of cover and kill actually expanded three times.

Where the sword rain passed, not a single piece of armor remained.

Thirty seconds later, when Xiao Ling jumped out of the sewer, the battle in the parking lot had already ended.

When Joey, Dahl, and Maya followed, they couldn't believe their eyes. It would take their resistance organization months to kill so many Robin Squad soldiers, but this "Harley Quinn" had done it in thirty seconds.

"God, what happened here?" Dahl stared at the surrounding corpses, dumbfounded. "How did she do it?"

"Looks like... they were standing in some kind of blade storm for a few seconds..." Joey walked to one of the corpses, lost in thought.

"So you were already here..." Ruo Yu didn't answer them, but looked up at the roof of the police station, murmuring.

Following her gaze, the crowd saw two heads protruding from the edge of the police station's rooftop.

"Hi~" Xiao Tan saw that he had been discovered, so he simply waved to the five people below and greeted them.

In Xiao Ling and Ruo Yu's eyes, Xiao Tan was still the same as before, but in the eyes of the three members of the Resistance organization, he was a terrifying-looking Two-Face. This extremely cordial "hi" was truly discordant.

Two seconds later, Feng Bujue, who was standing next to Xiao Tan, patted him on the shoulder and winked. Xiao Tan understood, and in the next second, he and Brother Jue flipped out of the rooftop and jumped down to the parking lot.

"What_the_hell..." Watching the two of them fly down from the top of the five-story building (the police station was taller than ordinary buildings, it would be seven stories if it were a residential building), and land unscathed, even Joey couldn't help but utter a curse to express his shock.

"You're Joey, right?" Feng Bujue asked, walking forward and looking at Joey.

"Yes." Joey replied, "How do you know my name?"

"Then you must be Maya?" Feng Bujue didn't answer him, but looked directly at Maya next to him.

Maya looked suspicious, but nodded anyway.

"Very good, let me guess..." Feng Bujue finally set his sights on Dahl, "Then you're Dahl, right?"

"Yes." Dahl replied, "I say... buddy, what are you exactly?"

"You don't need to know anymore, but I have a question I want to ask you..." Feng Bujue said as he walked up to Dahl.

Bang! A gunshot rang out.

No one expected that Brother Jue's next move would be—to take out a pistol from his pocket, raise his arm, aim it at Dahl's brow, and pull the trigger.

The whole set of movements was done in one go, quickly, accurately, smoothly, and gracefully, without the slightest bit of pity or hesitation.

After Dahl, who could not rest in peace, slowly fell backward, Feng Bujue continued the first half of his sentence: "...Why be a traitor?"

"Um..." Xiao Tan, seeing this scene, complained with a serious expression, "Is this the legendary shoot first, ask questions later..."

"Oh! God!" Joey immediately roared out and took out a small knife from his pocket, charging towards Brother Jue, "You bastard! What did you do!"

Clang—

Joey had only taken two steps when the knife in his hand was knocked away.

He didn't even know what happened, he only felt a blur in front of his eyes, his wrist went numb, and his body staggered sideways, almost falling. When he reacted and looked up ahead again, he found... that "Harley Quinn" was already standing in front of the Joker, holding a long sword, looking at him with eyes as cold as a blade.

"You... you guys..." Joey was shocked and angry, somewhat incoherent.

"He must have his reasons for doing this." Seeing that the other party had not charged up again, Ruo Yu slowly put down her sword, saying a good word for Brother Jue.

Of course... this sentence sounded a bit unreasonable.

"Joey Collins." Feng Bujue walked around Ruo Yu and slowly walked towards Joey, "You are a smart man, calm down and think about it... what exactly happened in the parking lot just now."

Hearing this, Joey suppressed his anger a little and recalled the series of events that had happened before.

A dozen seconds later, his expression changed drastically, and he looked at Brother Jue and replied, "Dahl... he's a spy..."

"Very good." Feng Bujue continued, "If you can't even see through such obvious things, then there's no need for us to talk."

"He..." Joey supported his forehead with one hand, revealing a sad and regretful expression, "He was my friend... why..."

"Because he's not firm enough, not strong enough." Feng Bujue interrupted, "Dahl is a cowardly person, you know that better than I do. Someone like him, once secretly arrested by the_Bruce's men, will immediately betray. They don't even need to torture him, he will kneel before the Bat." He paused, "Whether you believe it or not, I still have to tell you... just a few minutes ago, my partner and I personally saw him bring your Resistance friends here, and then, under the pretext of reconnaissance, he slipped away alone and sent a signal to the Robin Squad ambushing nearby."

"Oh... I understand..." Xiao Ling took over the conversation, thinking as she spoke, "When we saw us... Dahl's panic wasn't because the Robin Squad in the parking lot was chasing him, but because he suddenly heard Joey's voice while climbing the ladder. I guess... he originally planned to come down to find us, and then lead us to the parking lot as well. But he didn't expect us to come so quickly, and he happened to run into him at that entrance. Since there was just an RPG explosion from above at that time, he couldn't think of a good reason to trick us into going up, so he could only temporarily change his plan, and say that he was ambushed and escaped alone."

"Unbelievable..." Maya was also filled with emotion, "Dahl was one of the earliest members to join the organization... I thought..."

"Alright, dwelling on this is useless." Feng Bujue casually advised, then turned to Joey and said, "Mr. Collins, I need to talk to you." He put away his pistol and walked towards the other party, "I know, you have a lot of doubts now... don't worry, I will satisfy your curiosity as much as possible later."

The NPCs naturally didn't know... that when Joey climbed out of the sewer and appeared in Brother Jue's line of sight, Brother Jue and Xiao Tan both received a hidden mission. From that moment on, Feng Bujue had quickly conceived a complete walkthrough plan in his mind. Right now, his every step was deliberate.

"Anyway... for now, please come with us to the rooftop." Feng Bujue said as he reached out his right hand and grabbed Joey's arm...
